Ice cream flavors
Christopher W.

I can't rave more about this place. This is one of our family's favorite ice cream spots in the area. The woman working there is incredibly accommodating and friendly. The ice cream quality is amazing and it's made special that their products don't upset any of our stomachs (some members are sensitive to dairy.) They have a 20 different flavors of ice cream with a good selection of Asian flavors such as black sesame, ube and durian. The black sesame is one of the best I've ever eaten there. It's creamy, flavorful, and, most importantly, not too sweet. They don't only have ice cream. They also make custom cakes with different flavors and varieties. The durian cake is a definitely a favorite for some of us. It's a delicious cake and you can really taste the durian. The sizes are a bit small but it's honestly the right amount so I don't over eat. The inside is a little small, but it's very clean and services quick so you can be in and out depending on what you order. The only issue with the area is that the parking lot is a little small and can be a little tricky to find a spot. Definitely check this place out! We'll definitely be back!

My sister got my niece's birthday cake from here (taro and black sesame) and I was hooked! I also wanted to go here, but didn't have the time or ended up getting boba instead. But I finally stopped in and walked out with a pint of black sesame ice cream ($11). The lady was nice and friendly and really knows her ice cream. They have other flavors like ube, red bean, vanilla, but I knew I had to get the black sesame. It's not too sweet (iykyk) and I eat a little bit when I'm craving ice cream. They prefer Zelle or cash when paying so try to have that with you to be safe. I'll stop by again!

Mung Bean (Kiddie Size)

So many unique Asian flavors here! Recommend you carry cash, as you will save 3% from debit or credit card transactions. They also have Zelle if you don't carry cash on hand. Some unique flavors I saw include red bean, black sesame, taro, mung bean, and durian. There was only one lady serving the ice cream that day, but she was fast to get the line moving along! I tried the mung bean and it reminded me of my time in Beijing. Pretty authentic flavors and reasonably priced. ty for reading :^)

Woah flavors were really good, theres no many places to sit. Save your tasting spoons because maybe charging extra for spoons. Anyways plenty of parking spaces and the Icecream is really good! Yum! We really enjoyed the black sesame, taro and the coffee cookie and cream.

Edison, NJ - if you're in Edison or in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, definitely drop by Sweet Dynasty for your ice cream fix! Not only is the owner Michelle super cool (her mum opened the original BK location), so is the ice cream - all homemade and with unconventional flavors such as taro, black sesame, lychee, red bean, various teas, and even durian! Along with the most popular classic favors. I seek out novel and adventurous flavors when it comes to ice cream, so am delighted to come across this shop! I forgot to take a photo of the ice cream before me and my kiddo devoured it, so here are just the flavors to drool over.

Cute ice cream parlor in kam man plaza with asian inspired flavors! I got the ube scoop while my friend got the almond cookie flavor. Ube was a tad sweet for me but otherwise good. Also sampled the mung bean flavor which i found unique and the perfect amount of sweetness. The star of this shop is the lady who owns it though, she is super chatty and friendly and creates a very personable atmosphere. There's also a bunch of restaurants in the plaza so this is a perfect afternoon dinner stop!

Scoop flavors

Tucked inside the mini mall are these succulent artisanal homemade ice cream shop with flavors I've never seen before. From Yaro to Ube, mango, seasonal almonds coffee and the best strawberry I've ever had. Service was great (they do limit the amount of flavors to try) and there's a few bench's. Loved it and I can't wait to return

Ice cream case

Shop owner was friendly and informative. Makes their own ice cream - Asian & non-Asian flavors. Limit to 2 samples so choose wisely. I sampled black sesame and lychee and both were full of flavor. The sweetest flavors are mango, lychee and strawberry. The shop is very casual and clean. Look forward to returning soon!

Milk tea and black sesame
Jay L.

"my mom buys pints of these to take home" "The flavors here are so good" I love ice cream but I also love new flavors. Had a chance to stop in with some friends and tried a double scoop of Milk tea and black sesame. Wow, so good. Creamy and flavorful but not overpowering. Both complemented each other nicely so I def recommend trying both together. Had a bite of my friends chocolate cookies and cream too.. very good and I usually prefer vanilla over chocolate. Great spot, friendly staff!

Flavors

Still consistent with their flavors and their scoops. Nothing stingy at this place and I hope it doesn't change. Yesterday we were so surprised that it was filled with about 20 people in line INSIDE But the line was moving and didn't deter us to get our ice cream fix. We got all our flavors again plus the mango and holy smokes- great rich flavor, tastes like tropical creamy mango and maybe mixed with some subtle tartness from a green mango. Still great service and still a generous scoop!

Sweet Dynasty is a new-ish and cozy ice cream spot in Edison, NJ. No crazy trends or gimmicks that will be unpopular in a year or two here, just normal, delicious ice cream! I can't help but compare the flavors to that of Chinatown Ice Cream Factory in New York. They have plenty of popular Asian-inspired flavors like matcha, milk tea, thai tea, lychee, red bean, taro and more! The owners are very friendly and are locals to Central Jersey area so it always feels good to support a local small business. My personal favorite was the lychee! You don't get many spots that serve lychee ice cream so this was a real nice surprise. Would love to see a little more on the menu in the future (like milk shakes and different flavors in soft serve) and hopefully they can open up multiple choices of ice cream in one cup.

Thomas Sweet has such a cute exterior - you can't help but feel invited inside when you walk up to…read moreit! We stopped in on Sunday night at 10:45, right before they closed at 11pm. The staff were friendly/attentive and there was one table with a small group of patrons. The two of us shared a small sized cup of Biscoff cookie ice cream with cookie dough topping. The ice cream was smooth, creamy of course, and had the perfect amount of Biscoff crumbles mixed into it. Their cookie dough topping pieces were a little bit smaller in size than other ice cream places, and they were sweet and easy to chew. After passing by this cute little shop for years, I'm so glad we finally stopped in! It's definitely going to be my staple 'sweet treat' location for the New Brunswick area.

Visited with a decent group on a Sunday afternoon…read more Granted there was a huge crowd that came in with us, but the folks here did not seem all that excited to be serving us, and even though they were understaffed for the morning, did not seem too much in a hurry either. We got out smoothies/ice creams after a bit longer of a wait than expected. It's definitely a tight shop here, but we were able to find seats for us after waiting out a few folks. They've got a broken seat in the corner, which cause one of our group to almost fall into their ice cream! Hopefully they can get that fixed soon. Ice cream is decent! Smoothie also. I'd say it's typical college town fare, but nothing that you'd go out of your way for. Overall, it's a solid choice in the area, but a lot is begging to be improved here regarding the seating and the service.

The ice cream here was delicious. Really creamy. They had a bunch of interesting flavors…read more.. guessing some of them were Indian, but they also had some "western" flavors like Ferroro Rocher. I tried both the Ferrero Rocher and also Fig & Walnut. Both were really good. Its a little on the pricey side at $4.5 for a small cup. I'll return occasionally though. Customer service was a bit weird. Was a little hard to flag someone down, even though it wasn't busy when we arrived. Note that the google maps was a little confusing... I ended up missing the entrance of the strip mall parking lot, and had to pull into the adjacent lot, which was extremely packed and chaotic.

It's disappointing for me to leave this review because our family has been coming to this location…read moresince 2006. We genuinely love their eggless ice cream cakes and have ordered them for birthdays, Indian festivals, American holidays, and many other family celebrations over the years. My parents especially enjoy their cakes and can only have certain flavors, which is why we have continued coming back for so long. Unfortunately, over the last couple of years, our experience with the customer service has changed. The staff has often come across as unfriendly, and ordering a cake has sometimes been unnecessarily difficult. We live about 20 minutes away, and we've been asked to come into the store just to place an order, making it a 40-minute round trip before having to return again for pickup. I wish there were an easier way to handle confirmed orders over the phone. This most recent experience, however, was especially disappointing. I reserved a cake three days in advance for my mom's birthday. I clearly mentioned that I would be picking it up in the evening and provided my credit card information to hold the cake. On the day of her birthday, I called about 30 minutes before leaving home to pick it up. I was then told that my reserved cake had been sold to someone else because I hadn't picked it up earlier. I understand that misunderstandings and mistakes can happen. What I had a harder time understanding was why the cake was sold when I had specifically said I would be coming in the evening and had provided my credit card information to secure the reservation. What disappointed me even more was how the situation was handled. When I tried to explain what I had been told at the time of ordering, the conversation became argumentative rather than focused on finding a solution. When I mentioned that our family had been customers since 2006, the response was, "All our customers are old customers." I found that response dismissive and unnecessary. I wasn't asking for special treatment because we've been customers for so many years. I was simply expecting the cake that had been reserved for my mom's birthday--or, if a mistake had been made, an apology and some effort to make things right. Unfortunately, neither happened, and the conversation became frustrating enough that I eventually ended the call. What made this particularly upsetting was that the cake was for my mom's birthday. She specifically enjoys their eggless ice cream cakes, which is why I made sure to reserve the right flavor three days ahead of time. Being left without the cake we had planned for put a damper on an important family occasion. I also remember when the owner/founder was more present at the store, and our experience with the service was much better. I genuinely wish the customer service today reflected the positive experiences that kept our family coming back all these years. The cakes themselves have been a family favorite for a long time, and I want to be fair about that. But good products also need to be backed by reliable and respectful customer service. After being a customer since 2006, this experience was unfortunately the point where I decided it was time for us to go elsewhere.
